Fkn WOW!!!

Some historically very significant GTR's there!!!

I've got to go there next trip to Japan

Do you have any more pics please of the R33/4 development car, and also any more of the C110 Kenmeri please?

R34 development cars :thumbsup:

Small correction regarding the matt black R33 used for development of the R34 - it is basically an aero test mule, for testing R34 diffusers and the rear spoiler. Back area was reinforced to simulate the R34 chassis behaviour, and it also uses R34 wheels.

It was used for development testing during 1996-97 at the Tochigi and Hokkaido Nissan test facilities, so testing started well before R34 was launched. This car had a nickname "stealth", apparently due to its paint.

R34 was the car used for testing at the Ring - it's nickname was also "Stealth" - I know, so imaginative. Development started in June 1995. It also says that the lap time achieved was not announced straight away but that the goal was to better lap R33 lap time by 10 seconds.

Unreal.

Anymore photo's?

How many cars are there?

Maybe 30 cars all up - but collection changes every now and then, so maybe in a few years time none of these cars will be there, hopefully replaced by some other cool Skylines :thumbsup:

    • Hi All Does anyone know what size bolts are used to mount the bonnet hinge to the bonnet on an R32 GTR please? I'd usually just buy them OEM but they are nearly £20 each and I need all 4
    • interestingly enough, i found out the answer is yes. doing a flush did fix my recurring A/T light. it might have been because of the trans filter: but that doesn't really make sense to me. the fluid/filter was super dirty. would that increase the pressure in the lines and trigger an A/T light? does the car even have a way of detecting that? i have no idea. i've done 200+ miles after the flush and no A/T light. if my A/B solenoids went bad, i would think the light would've come on. shifts and drives way better now though...at 2k rpm instead of 2500...no hesitation and downshifts when i want it to. 
    • I vote go red. Only because I hate keeping gloss black clean. Was no worries helping out either! Glad you've survived the rain outs of QLD
    • I would again like too thank Matt for his help in me sourcing the detachable hard top for the little red car, without Matt's assistance in inspecting it and locking it down, I can guarantee it would have sold before I could get up to see it,  and as that was the only available NC hardtop in Australia, I consider myself extremely lucky on multiple levels To say I'm more that happy would be an understatement And, it is 100% water tight, I drove through torrential rain coming back south, and by torrential, they type of rain that doing 40kph in a 110kph zone was a real thing, and even then, the standing water on the Hwy was deep enough to throw waves I'm also more than happy that the huge "BEASTS" that Matt calls dogs didn't eat me for lunch, I'm sure the sniffs and licks were more to "taste test" me, over being to friendly Now to work out what colour to get it painted, panel match, or gloss black........first world problems are real
